The law establishes financial requirements for providers of identity recovery service contracts, which requires an insurance policy and reserve account reimbursement for the client. The new law also requires financial security in the form of a deposit of cash, a surety bond, securities, a letter of credit or another form of security. This security amount can not be less than $25,000 or 5% of the total consideration the provider received from consumers from the sale of all identity recovery service contracts written and outstanding in the State; if there are any claims paid greater, that will meet the requirement as well. With this new law in place, the provider or its parent company can sustain a net worth or stockholder’s equity of at least $100 million. SB 778 will become effective on January 1, 2010.
